Wavelength of the transverse wave is 30 cm. If the particle at some instant has displacement 2 cm, find the displacement of the particle 15 cm away at the same instant.
Transverse wave :
A wave in which particles of the medium vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave is called transverse wave.
Example : Ripples on...
i. Consider a transverse progressive wave whose particle position is described by x and displacement from equilibrium position is described by y.
Such a sinusoidal wave can be written as follows:
∴...
1. Light waves (from Sun to Earth) are electromagnetic waves which are transverse in nature.
2. Ultrasonic waves in air are basically sound waves of frequency greater than the audible frequencies....
